This is a little different type of money tip inspired by the recent
accomplishments of the Los Angeles Lakers coach Phil Jackson. I hope
you enjoy it.
Phil Jackson is one of the greatest professional coaches of all
time. He is able to enhance the skills of his team members and to
motivate them to accomplish great things. He is one of the greatest
playoff coaches who enhance his teams’ chances of winning when it
counts most. He has coached players with varying ability and molded
them into winners. Phil Jackson was not a great basketball player.
He is not in the basketball hall of fame because of his playing
ability. What Phil Jackson has is a great ability to focus attention
to the outcomes that the team desires and to motivate, challenge,
tutor, and counsel his teams to victory.
Coaching is something all of us can use. Coaching is a long-term
relationship. Sport dynasties and company success is not a short
term or overnight occurrence. Success comes from well-planned
strategies, monitored, and developed by coaches and players. Players
execute the plan, and the outcomes are measured against the long-term
goals.
Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan, Shaquille O’Neal, Lleyton Hewitt,
Venus and Serena Williams, Andre Agassi, Olympic gold medallists, and every
world champion in every sport has someone who has helped them attain
their level of success. They all had a coach. Not only is coaching important in sports, but coaching is important in the business community as well!
Many businesses are now requiring management to become more like
coaches in their industry and workplace as opposed to the traditional
model of management. Why? Because coaching works! Coaching helps
to improve performance, increase motivation and enhances the chances
of successful outcomes for the company as well as employees.
Take a look at your life. What areas would you like to improve
upon? The road to success leads to the developing of a relationship
with a coach who will help you reach the championship level of life.
Be a big time championship player in the game of life!
M. Maximize your dreams
O. Overcome obstacles by organizing your life
N. Network to net-worth
E. Enjoy the moment
Y. Yield abundance
